2 #1 - Collect ideas for exploration Create a Wallwisher with the title of the themed work. Allow open editing Work as individuals or class Embed into Learning Platform

3 #2 - Useful for plenaries Many children would rather sit quietly than ask or answer questions during a plenary. Create a Plenary Wall for children to use instead. @kvnmcl

4 #3 - Shapes - regular polygons Students search for images Copy URLs Paste back into 'sticky' @IaninSheffield

5 #4 Giving Out Assignments I use WallWisher to post projects to the web. Also it is an easy way to post the links for the parents to see what the students are doing in the classroom. @smarkwith

6 #5 Pupil Theme Evaluation Give questions for pupils to post feedback, evaluating a theme / topic. E.g. What did you enjoy / not enjoy? What would you like to do differently? @primarypete_@primarypete_

7 #6 Gather feedback Create a Wall to gather feedback from a wider audience.

8 #7 Let Students Showcase Their Work Because Wallwisher can play embedded media from linked URLs, it can be a great way to collate in one place different types of work students have done. Here I asked them to choose their favourite piece from the web2.0 activities we did:Here (There were lots more but I've deleted ones with broken links.) @antheald @antheald

9 We have used Wallwisher for student book reviews and they LOVE it!! anne marie #8 Book Reviews

10 #9 - Create Honor Walls For Veterans Day we had our 5th grade students add the name of a Veteran they know to our Veterans Honor Wall. This could be easily adapted for other similar activities. anne marie

11 #10 Students share success criteria Students use Wallwisher to share their own success criteria for tasks. @infernaldepart@infernaldepart

12 #11 Environmental Pledges Following on from our Going Green week, we used the wall to make commitments to the environment. @ipittman

13 #12 A suggestion box in Library on the circulation desk

14 #13 International Greetings For the European Day of Languages we asked as many people as we knew to add a greeting in their own languages @langwitch

15 #14 Where in the World were you born? A lot of the students in our country (New Zealand) are immigrants from a wide range of countries, so a great way of getting to know students and learn about the geography of the world is to get them to post where they come from and link to a google map. This information is then transferred to the class world map where Photos and descriptions of each student is placed. @sharpjacqui

16 #15 Review of the Year I'm going to use wallwisher with my class for a review of 2009 and saying what they want to achieve in 2010. This seems I really good way of putting these ideas together. I've made a start with my review and what I want to achieve in 2010. http://wallwisher.com/wall/PrimarysevenA Robert Drummond

17 #16 - Notes to peer presentations When a group was presenting their work to the class, I asked the rest of the class to look at the presentations and post a sticky note on our Wallwisher whenever they spotted an advantage/disadvantage of renewable/non-renewable energy resources, so they were taking shared notes about topics created by other members of the class. http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/energyresources Alessio Bernardelli @asober

18 #17 Departmental sharing Use a wallwisher page as a resource sharing area for your department - can embed in VLE or Learning Gateway. This is great for colleagues that are nervous of using new technology because of the ease of use. @Libwithattitude

19 # Sharing resources and embedding them in the blog Sharing theme-based resources with colleagues and students http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/listening http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/cHFJEZ9Eor http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/Y9L1Ykb28z @meerisild

20 #19 A thank-you wall Put a wallwisher on the old computer in the staffroom. Use it to post thank-you notes for TAs and members of staff or just to say what a great job the people in your school are doing. This isn't my idea it came from a teacher I was training, so no screenshot! Sorry. @ianaddison
